You could know at least eight minutes of it. Willful ignorance isn't actually a black hole.
Your line remains permissive to non-existent while your bar for evidence or knowledge conveniently restrictive and dismissive. Police murdering people isn't as bad as the pattern of comments you've consistently displayed in any case of police brutality ever addressed on these boards. Without your excuses and assent, it would not be possible for such a small contingent of armed belligerents to maintain social control and legal privilege in this country - a fact that burning police stations and fleeing officers attests to handily.
People are marching to protest police brutality, sure, but the larger problem that they're marching against, a problem that must be addressed before there is ever any chance of addressing the brutality itself, are attitudes and opinions such as yours. Unfortunately...no one but you can truly do anything about your own opinions and attitudes.
Perhaps you should direct some of that critical light you apply to the victims of police brutality to the police, or even yourself. Perhaps your penchant for not knowing and reserving judgement should be applied to the victims of police brutality, rather than the perpetrators.
